DAY OF MINDFULNESS

Join the monastics of Mountain Spring for a relaxing and rejuvenating Day of Mindfulness - a day in which we come back home to ourselves, relax, and cultivate the energy of mindfulness together as a community.


Each Sunday is different - typically we begin at 9:00am with a Meditation Class, followed by Walking Meditation, Dharma Talk or Precept Recitation, a vegetarian Mindful Lunch, and an Afternoon Activity (e.g. Total Relaxation & Touching the Earth, Dharma Discussion, Sitting Meditation, Tea Mediation, Chanting Class). The day concluding at approx. 3:30pm.

The 1st Sunday of the month we will recite the 5 Mindfulness Trainings, the 3rd Sunday of the Month we will recite the 14 Mindfulness Trainings.

 
MONASTERY STAY

We are very happy to offer the possibility to enjoy either 3 or 7 days here at Mountain Spring, where you can immerse yourself in the rhythm of the daily practice schedule of the monastery.  If this will be your first retreat, you may register for a weekend (3 days). If you are a returning retreatant, it is possible to register for one week (7 days). Arrival days are Fridays.

THEMED WEEKEND RETREATS

Periodically throughout the year, Mountain Spring hosts special weekend retreats which are focused around a particular theme or practice.

LONGER OFFSITE MINDFULNESS RETREATS
